I got a web application, in which there are some images.
Will show a overlay in my page at start and that will automatically fadeout on all images loades.
I need something like this
its rough code
var image1="image1.jpg";
var image2="image2.jpg";
var image4="image4.jpg";
image1 & image2 & image4 loaded then fadeout #preload and show content.
Please help me ... I tried this .. but not working ..
var img1 = new Image();
img1.src = "../images/wall.jpg";
img1.onload = function() {
alert("loaded");
};
var images_loading = $('img').length;
$('img').load(function(){
if(!--images_loading) {
// all images loaded
}
});
Please mind you can't use display:none to hide images.
Using display:none will block image download by your browser. User visibility:hidden instead.
Try this fiddle. I've made it using mostly raw javascript.
If you want, you could use jQuerys .load to replace the onload function, and append to replace appendChild

I want to make a loading overlay, but instead using setTimeout I would like to show the "loader" until the first image is fully loaded on the webpage. ( After that, I would like to use lazy image loading )
Until now I used setTimeout, but it's not working really well. I can set a bigger time, but now there is a "gap" between the loader and when the image appears.
The picture urls are fetched from a wordpress API and I'm using template.
What I want is to show the "loading" overlay until the first image is fully loaded, so users don't see the blank state.
var img = document.querySelector("#img");
img.onload = function(){
document.getElementById("loading").style.display = "none"
}
I can't use jQuery because it's for a school project. I tried all the alternatives I found here by adding a console.log("loaded") when it's loaded, but nothing seems to work.
Maybe set the img.src after you defined onload
let img = document.createElement('img');
img.onload = function(){}
img.src = "url"
I have a website heavily loaded with images. It's quite unattractive to see the images coming up slowly. I've seen a few websites show a preloader which hides that ugly loading phase. I'm not talking about the <img /> tag here, but I'm talking about CSS background-images.
I do not understand how to achieve this effect using JavaScript and/or jQuery.
P.S: I also seeking links to plugins if there are any available.
Start of with setting the css:
#myElement
{
background-image: url('loading.gif');
}
Then use the following javascript function:
function loadImage()
{
var img = new Image;
img.src = "http://path/to/img";
img.onload = function()
{
var myElement = document.getElementById("myElement");
myElement.style.backgroundImage = "url('" + this.src + "')";
}
}
fire the function in the body onload like this:
<body onload="loadImage();">
or add it to another init script which fires from here.
Hope this will get you going!
I've been having a problem caused by the previous image staying on the screen until the next is loaded.
My program uses a flowchart where various images are needed for certain questions. I've been using the following code to change the source from one to another.
HTML:
<img class= 'right' id= 'imageBox' style= 'width: 20%; height: auto;' src= www.1stimage.com/>
javascript:
document.getElementById("imageBox").src = 'www.2ndimagesite.com';
If the computer has a slow connection, the first image could stay on the screen for up to 10 seconds before the next one shows up. How do I get it to not display anything until it's finished?
Thanks.
Preload the image and update the src after it's loaded:
var img = new Image();
var newsrc = 'www.2ndimagesite.com';
img.onload = function () {
document.getElementById("imageBox").src = newsrc;
};
img.src = newsrc;
You can change aproach a bit to achieve what you want.
You can preload images and after that just select what image to show. You can read more about this here: http://perishablepress.com/3-ways-preload-images-css-javascript-ajax/
You can make start loading new image async and change current image to image like loading spinner or some image, which shows that something is loading at the moment (example: ) On onload handler you will rewrite this spinner to loaded image.
I wanted to write ~ same that #nedt wrote. Btw, I don't think that his code will help you. I think you will achieve same effect as you said in answer. Anyway, he was first and his answer was close, so I will just use his example.
document.getElementById("imageBox").src = "loading image link"; // load spinner
var img = new Image(); // load image asynchronously
var newsrc = 'www.2ndimagesite.com';
img.onload = function () { // onload handler
document.getElementById("imageBox").src = newsrc;
};
img.src = newsrc;
So, old image was loaded on page loaded. You did some action, for example pressed button. If you have low speed, loading spinner will be shown and after new image is loaded async, new image will be shown. If you have enought speed, new image will appear immediately.
Hope this will help you!
document.images[i].complete
will be true if picture[i] source is loaded.
you could preload all pictures an dont show it until the status change.
Right now I am building a map of the US, and when you hover over any given state, I am replacing the image with an image of a different color.
My problem is that the way I am currently doing things, the image is being replaced and a new image loaded on hover.
I have the HTML laid out as:
<img class="state" id="alaska" src="img/united-states_Alaska.png" alt="alaska">
<img class="state" id="hawaii" src="img/united-states_hawaii.png" alt="hawaii">
And the jQuery I am using is:
$('.interactive-map img').each(function(e){
var src = $(this).attr('src');
$(this).hover(function(){
$(this).attr('src', src.replace('.png', '-hover.png'));
}, function(){
$(this).attr('src', src);
});
});
I am curious if there is another way to either preload the images with JavaScript, or make it so that there isn't a new request for image every time I hover. I would like to not have to change the HTML or CSS much and optimize it in JavaScript.
Add your images to the DOM on page load but in hidden state, then they get cached
$(function() {
var images = ['url/to/your/jpg1.jpg', 'ur/to/your/png2.png'];
var d = document.createElement("div");
d.style.display = 'none';
document.body.appendChild(d);
for (var i in images)
{
var img = document.createElement("img");
img.src = images[i];
d.appendChild(img);
}
});
Have two image tags and set the first image's display: block. Set the second image's display: none.
Then on hover you switch the them. It is as easy as that.
Use PreloadJS
Example:
var preload = new createjs.LoadQueue();
preload.addEventListener("fileload", handleFileComplete);
preload.loadFile('http://createjs.com/images/404/gBot-confused.jpg');
function handleFileComplete(event) {
document.body.appendChild(event.result);
}

Another interesting post using JS and AJAX: Preloading
I have a page that swaps some fairly large images in and out. There are too many to preload when the page initially loads so that is not an option. So what I need to do is load them as they are requested by the user. Right now I'm using jQuery to replace the img's src. This works fine but the images I am loading can be around 500KB and it looks bad as they paint down the screen as they are downloading. What I'd like to do is pop a loading gif on the page when the image is in the process of loading then have the loading gif disappear once the image is loaded. I'm struggling to find a way to do that though. Here is the JS/jQuery code that I have that just replaces the src.
var product = "bowl";
var image = "dog.jpg"; //this is actually pulled from a data attribute, but its just hardcoded here for an example
$("#images img[data-product="+product+"]").attr("src", "/img/tablesetting/"+image);
I made a working jsfiddle showing this principle
http://jsfiddle.net/kasperfish/c72RT/4/
I recently needed to do the same thing. Basically I wrapped the image in a container div. within the container I've added a span element with my ajax loader gif embedded. this span has to be hidden initially but gets visible when an ajax request is made. The span gets removed when the image is fully loaded.
before ajax call
$('#your_image_container').find('span').show();
on success
$('#your_image').attr('src', 'your/image/url').load(function() {
$('#your_image_container').find('span').fadeOut();
});
I made a jsfiddle showing this principle
http://jsfiddle.net/kasperfish/c72RT/4/
Preload the image.
var product = "bowl";
var imageSrc = "dog.jpg";
var imgEl = $("#images img[data-product="+product+"]");
// show loading graphic only if it's needed
var timer = setTimeout(function(){
imgEl.attr("src", "/img/loading.gif");
},50);
// preload image
var img = new Image();
img.onload = function() {
clearTimeout(timer);
imgEl.attr("src",imageSrc);
}
img.src = imageSrc;
$img.attr("src", newImage);
if (!$img.get(0).complete) {
$img
.hide()
.after("<img src=throbber>")
.on("load", function () {
$(this).show().next().remove();
});
}
